[GreenTaldarin]

you inspire me alot man...2 bad i cant get over that shitty outline i always use :(

[enbuoh1234]

they say that those who cant do, teach. im so glad that doesnt apply to you. my art teacher was shit

[SamHain1031666]

Can someone explain to me how hes creating such precise black pen strokes at 2:20 and onwards. Id just use the brush or pencil took but it seems to me like hes not doing it freehand, hes using a tool, any help?

[ZeqwaL]

@SamHain1031666 I was aking this question a few days ago too , and I was told that there are these graphics tablets , they are like a touch screen you can draw freehand on :)

Im not sure if thats the right name for them though

[SamHain1031666]

@ZeqwaL Yeah there called wacom cintiqs and there amazing, extremely expensive though

[ZeqwaL]

@SamHain1031666 I saw another video review and there was one that was 20$ but it has no screen on it but I think it would do for starting off

[bddblade]

Omg I so want to go to this school!!! To bad it's not in the us! T_T

[hydroblast9]

@bddblade it is. its in california

[bddblade]

@hydroblast9 Whattttttttt!!?!? Is it also called FZD School?

[hydroblast9]

@bddblade yeah. well you need to go the site

[LEGIT134]

Great video, great initial sketch and everything else was really excellent...

[CT2507]

high heels not only makes a girls legs look longer, but what is more important, high heels forces the hips to move in a certain way that is more animated and gives an overall more sexy walk! :)

great work Feng!

[djblast101]

let me take a drink for a sec* (-_____-)



[Phergan]

Twice the speed is 200%, though. :b

[bassjunkie223]

what is an ip in the sense he is speaking of

[droidBasher]

@bassjunkie223

IP == Intellectual property.

Wikipedeia has a good article on it, but basically it is the right to create works based on someone else's character/world (in this case Bubblegum Crisis).

[megamarine]

I don't get anything from these tutorials. I am just like this what about he is talking, what's gong.

[kevin71127]

@megamarine what

[12santiago12]

Are you using pen pressure at all? 

[lilmissgrusome]

This will help with my college project, thank you so much :) i love character design

[tekkoontan]

feng, i have a question, so you once told me that Ubisoft does have an outlet in singapore, is it possible to work as a character designer for a Ubisoft game but work in singapore instead? thnx

[perferstrategy]

so cool

[rstrickland57]

By "real world", he means making the designs bland and generic.

[Nxluda]

I am not going to lie, I love his mistakes, I am not talking about composition, I am talking about each mistake he fixes through out his paintings, Alot of people believe the first line they draw is right. which is never the case. That why I find it more helpful to learn how to fix mistakes, rather then fool yourself that it's right.

[D3ADLYTHRUST52]

Yeah ur lucky at least, I don't even have a tablet or laptop,yet. We have a computer but it has no internet, but I draw everyday.

[karagu1]

in my life and home im poor ,but i have a laptop, and tablet and stuff, i cant afford all those high quality screens ,tablets, and hand drawing tools like copic marker sets, but sofar im doing fine with what i got and what i can get for now,sofar i improve sloly by you feng zu and other artist i chek out everywhere online, so as long as i can make do, and it works, it for now makes no diffrence to me...

[JedoDre]

I heard the words "we" and "Michael Bay" and my hand reached for subscribe lol

[Paolodude404]

This is amazing! :D I'm going to take game design school once I'm in a college even though my dream is to become a game designer. I have this amazing idea to create a game. Even though I'm 14 :P

[kurt24100]

what brush are you using? and what settings??? I am new to this, just got my tablet and I can't find or make a good brush like this to use for simple sketching. Please help me out :)

[GakkiSai]

A bubblegum Crisis film would be pretty sweet...

[ceridwengwyon]

it's a great tutorial! thanks for sharing it, and also all the other ones! :)

[BananaWarrior1993]

What an alcoholic..

[Robertooo015]

what kind of brushes do you use for sketches?

[loltyf1]

Wow, very awesome! I'm practicing this for my future study and I would like to know wich brushes you use for this?

Hope you will answer me soon :D

[fronteraster]

I actually heard amazing stuff about this school but its on the other side of the world! :(

[Velock85]

thank you for sharing this is very inspiring

[kanakmann]

"IP" could (Feng mentions the abbreviation a few times in the video...) mean Intellectual Property..?!? Maybe...

:}

Bye.

A.

[MMAMangaka012]

What does "IP" mean?

[Azza1070]

Lol, when he said "we've been doing environments and stuff for awhile now", that's exactly what I've been digitally drawing, and I was about to start drawing characters and I saw this video on my homepage...What are the odds... =D

[getnitdunn]

Is he using a separate software? Or does it come with the wacom tablet?

[TheEclipse4d]

wwwwhhhhoooa.....

[menglis3]

he's not using a mouse right?

[SalvableRuin]

@menglis3 No, he's using a Wacom drawing tablet. It would be impossible to do what he is doing with a mouse.

[fernandesbrandon1]

@menglis3 If he was using a mouse I'd shoot myself in the head !

[ibgrorg]

Is it possible that we could see a fantasy character developement tutorial?

Awesome stuff, either way.

[mQtek]

This is gold for me,  I subbed!

[cory18011801]

@mQtek Shiny

[Street00]

Great Videos as always ! I realized that I now search for these every week. Thank you Feng for sharing your knowledge.

I really enjoy your line work when you sketch and I was wondering if you could go over line quality, varying line weights and so forth when designing.

Thanks again.

[jakobweiq]

was wondering whether FZ experimented with other raster image softwares besides photoshop and painter :)

mayb he can give PaintTool SAI a go? its really huge in Japan's animation/concept/illustration scene.. n its lighter on resource than photoshop n painter.

[motokeiru]

Great job with this tutorials, I'm starting to draw now I'm learning most stuff from the internet and I would like to learn at a school like this but I can't really afford that at the moment and I don't think I'm at the level requried for advanced stuff.

[brkyrfaze]

Yay! Was waiting for this tutorial. Thanks Feng :)

[NemesioIV]

nice, a character sketching tutorial! i hope i see more of these from you guys. Yes there are a lot of these tutorials on youtube but most of them are garbage. its nice to learn from a pro like you
